Alternative Shakespeares 3
Shakespeare and the Problem of Adaptation
Edited by Diana E. Henderson, MIT, Massachusetts, USA Taking up the challenge embodied in its predecessors, Alternative Shakespeares 3 identifies and explores the new, the changing and the radically “other” possibilities for Shakespeare Studies at our particular historical moment.
Margaret Jane Kidnie, University of Western Ontario, Canada Shakespeare and the Problem of Adaptation presents an engaging exploration of the distinction between the Shakespearean work and its apparent other, the adaptation. Margaret Jane Kidnie brings performance criticism into contact with textual studies to show that the mutually defining categories of work and adaptation are unfixed; the products of ongoing debates, arguments, and desires. Kidnie pursues her argument in relation to instances as diverse as theatrical productions by the Royal Shakespeare Company to Djanet Sears’ prequel to Othello, and from Robert Lepage’s one-man Hamlet to recent print editions of the complete works. These new readings of key productions are accessible as independent analyses, and build up a persuasive picture of the cultural and intellectual processes that currently determine how the authentically Shakespearean is distinguished from the fraudulent and adaptive. 2008: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2: 232pp Hb: 978-0-415-30867-0: $130.00 Pb: 978-0-415-30868-7: $39.95
The volume introduces the most innovative of the new directions emerging in Shakespearean scholarship as well as the “next step” work in areas such as postcolonial and queer studies that continue to push the boundaries of the field. The contributors approach each topic with clarity and accessibility in mind to enable student readers to engage with serious “alternatives” to established ways of interpreting Shakespeare’s plays and their roles in contemporary culture. The expertise, commitment and daring of this volume’s contributors shine through each essay, maintaining the progressive edge and real-world urgency that are the hallmark of Alternative Shakespeares 3.
Accents on Shakespeare Series Editor: Terence Hawkes, University of Wales, Cardiff, UK “They are remarkably comprehensive, timely, and informative, and an essential way to keep current with the fundamental ideas in Shakespearean criticism.” — Arthur Kinney, University of Massachusetts, USA Accents on Shakespeare supplies an exciting range of provocative, cutting-edge accounts of and comments on new developments in Shakespeare studies. The books in the series either apply theory, or broaden and adapt it in order to connect with concrete teaching concerns. In the process, they also reflect and engage with the major developments in Shakespeare studies of the last ten years.
NEW
Gothic Shakespeares Edited by John Drakakis, and Dale Townshend, both at University of Stirling, UK Shakespeare was both influenced by and influential in the rise of Gothic forms in literature and culture from the late eighteenth-century onwards. Shakespeareís plays are full of ghosts, suspense, fear-inducing moments and cultural anxieties which many writers in the Gothic mode have since emulated, adapted and appropriated.

Profiling Shakespeare Marjorie Garber, Harvard University, USA The title of this collection, Profiling Shakespeare, is meant strongly in its double sense. These essays show the outline of a Shakespeare rather different from the man sought by biographers from his time to our own. They also show the effects, the ephemera, the clues and cues, welcome and unwelcome, out of which Shakespeare’s admirers and dedicated scholars have pieced together a vision of the playwright, whether as sage, psychologist, lover, theatrical entrepreneur, or moral authority. This collection brings together classic pieces, hard-to-find chapters, and two new essays. Here, Garber has produced a book at once serious and highly readable, ranging broadly across time periods (early modern to postmodern) and touching upon both high and popular culture. Contents: Preface 1. Shakespeare’s Ghost Writers 2. Hamlet: Giving Up the Ghost 3. Macbeth: The Male Medusa 4. Shakespeare as Fetish 5. Character Assassination 6. Out of Joint 7. Roman Numerals 8. Second-Best Bed 9. Shakespeare’s Dogs 10. Shakespeare’s Laundry List 11. Shakespeare’s Faces 12. MacGuffin Shakespeare 13. Fatal Cleopatra 14. What Did Shakespeare Invent? 15. Bartlett’s Familiar Shakespeare
In Gothic Shakespeares, Shakespeare is considered alongside many writers from Horace Walpole, Ann Radcliffe, Matthew Lewis, and Mary Shelley onwards, and up to and including contemporary gothic fiction and films such as Bram Stokerís Dracula, Underworld and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This volume offers a truly original and provocative account of Gothic reformulations of Shakespeare.

William Shakespeare’s The Merchant of Venice A Sourcebook
This provocative study demonstrates ways in which a fresh engagement with theorists such as Foucault, Bourdieu, Deleuze and Derrida can shed new light not only on Shakespeare’s plays, but on the use of continental theory on literary studies. Equally, Wilson emphasizes the centrality of Shakespeare to all literary and theoretical study, and the timeless nature of his ever-present influence. 2007: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2: 336pp Hb: 978-0-415-42164-5: $120.00 Pb: 978-0-415-42165-2: $37.95

Arguing that contemporary culture uses Shakespeare to re-think these same issues today as we experience a post-modern crisis in “childness,” Shakespeare and Child’s Play first locates ideas of childhood in early modern theorizations and performances then analyzes a range of recent performances on stage and film that put our own culture’s conflicted responses to the emotive issue of the child squarely in view. 2007: 5-1/2 x 8-1/2: 272pp Hb: 978-0-415-36518-5: $125.00 Pb: 978-0-415-36519-2: $35.95 eBook: 978-0-203-01658-9

Shakespeare’s Bawdy
NEW
Eric Partridge
Teaching Reading Shakespeare
With a foreword by Stanley Wells “It reads as freshly today as it did fifty years ago, when it surprised everyone with its originality and daring, an intriguing blend of personal insight and solid detective-work. If ever a word-book deserved to be called a classic, it is this.” —David Crystal Shakespeare’s Bawdy must rank as one of the great Eric Partridge’s most outstanding accomplishments.

Re-playing Shakespeare in Asia
NEW SERIES!
Edited by Poonam Trivedi, University of Delhi, India and Ryuta Minami, Aichi University of Education, Japan
Providing a practical and critical discussion of the ways in which Shakespeare’s plays present problems to the young reader, the book considers how these difficulties might be overcome. It provides guidance on:
In this book, leading scholars in the field examine the performance of Shakespeare in Asia. Focusing specifically on the work of major directors in the central and emerging areas of Asia—Japan, China, India, Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, Indonesia and the Philippines—the chapters in this volume encompass a broader and more representative swath of Asian performances and locations in one book than has been attempted until now.

Shakespeare and Philosophy
• using conversation analysis in helping to read and teach Shakespeare;
Stanley Stewart, University of California, Riverside, USA
• reading the plays in contextual, interpretive and linguistic frameworks required by examinations at GCSE and A Level
Touching on the work of philosophers including, Richardson, Kant, Hume, Wittgenstein, Nietzsche, and Dewey, this study will examine the history of what philosophers have had to say about “Shakespeare” as a subject of philosophy, from the seventeenth-century to the present. Stewart’s volume will be of interest to both Shakespeareans, literary critics, and philosophers.
At once practical and principled, analytical and anecdotal, drawing on a wide range of critical reading and many examples of classroom encounters between Shakespeare and young readers, Teaching Reading Shakespeare encourages teachers to develop a more informed, reflective and exploratory approach to Shakespeare in schools.

Shakespeare and Trauma
Shakespeare in Children’s Literature Gender and Cultural Capital
Contemporary Performances on Stage and Screen
Erica Hateley, Kansas State University, USA
Catherine Silverstone, University of London, UK
This book considers Shakespeare-for-children, looking at adaptations of his plays, and children’s novels in which he appears. Drawing on feminist theory and sociology, Hateley demonstrates how this genre utilizes the ongoing cultural capital of “Shakespeare,” and the pedagogical aspects of children’s literature to perpetuate anachronistic forms of identity and authority.
In this original study, Silverstone explores the relationship between performances of Shakespeare’s plays and the ways in which they engage with various traumatic events and histories. In considering this relationship, she asks how performance might articulate traumatic events and investigates the ethical and political implications of attempts to represent trauma in performance. In exploring these issues, Silverstone interrogates a range of narratives about Shakespeare, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, colonization and violence.

Jonathan Sawday, University of Strathclyde, UK “While few books can truly lay claim to the achievement of crossing disciplinary boundaries, Sawday’s impressive Engines of the Imagination must certainly be numbered as one of them.”—The British Society for Literature and Science “Jonathan Sawday’s immensely enjoyable and learned Engines of the Imagination is...a careful examination of the literal and figurative function of all manner of ‘engines’ prior to their coding as ‘automatic’, necessarily ‘inorganic’, ‘inhuman’ machines.”—Julian Yates, The Review of English Studies Challenging the artificial divide between technological studies and cultural history, Engines of the Imagination traces the story of the imaginative encounter with machines and machinery in the European Renaissance. 2007: 6-1/4 x 9-1/4: 424pp Hb: 978-0-415-35061-7: $125.00 Pb: 978-0-415-35062-4: $35.95

Edited by John Jeffries Martin, Trinity University, Texas, USA With an interdisciplinary approach that encompasses the history of ideas, political history, cultural history and art history, this volume, in the successful Routledge Worlds series, offers a sweeping survey of Europe in the Renaissance, from the late thirteenth to early seventeenth centuries, and shows how the Renaissance laid key foundations for many aspects of the modern world. Collating thirty-four essays from the field’s leading scholars, John Jeffries Martin shows that this period of rapid and complex change resulted from a convergence of a new set of social, economic and technological forces alongside a cluster of interrelated practices including painting, sculpture, humanism and science, in which the elites engaged. Unique in its balance of emphasis on elite and popular culture, on humanism and society, and on women as well as men, The Renaissance World grapples with issues as diverse as Renaissance patronage and the development of the slave trade. Beginning with a section on the antecedents of the Renaissance world, and ending with its lasting influence, this book is an invaluable read, which students and scholars of history and the Renaissance will dip into again and again.

Routledge Studies in Renaissance Literature and Culture Series
Renaissance Theory Edited by James Elkins, Art Institute of Chicago and Robert Williams Renaissance Theory presents an animated conversation among art historians about the optimal ways of conceptualizing Renaissance art, and the links between Renaissance art and contemporary art and theory. This is the first discussion of its kind, involving not only questions within Renaissance scholarship, but issues of concern to art historians and critics in all fields. Organized as a virtual roundtable discussion, the contributors discuss rifts and disagreements about how to understand the Renaissance and debate the principal texts and authors of the lastæthirty years who have sought to reconceptualize the period. They then turn to the issue of the relation between modern art and the Renaissance: Why do modern art historians and critics so seldom refer to the Renaissance? Is the Renaissance our indispensable heritage, or are we cut off from it by the revolution of modernism? The volume includes an introduction by Rebecca Zorach and two final, synoptic essays, as well as contributions from some of the most prominent thinkers on Renaissance art including Stephen Campbell, Michael Cole, Frederika Jakobs, Claire Farago, and Matt Kavaler.

Uses of the Future in Early Modern Europe
Authorship, Authority and the Playhouse
Edited by Andrea Brady and Emily Butterworth, Kings College, London, UK
Grace Ioppolo, University of Reading, UK
Foreword by Peter Burke.
“To say that Ioppolo’s book will, or should, completely alter the way the texts by the playwrights of the period are edited and therefore performed is to put it entirely too mildly.” —William Proctor Williams, Notes and Queries
Uses of the Future in Early Modern Europe provides new readings of canonical early modern texts and insights into popular culture.
“Ioppolo’s book, often iconoclastic, can also be bracingly funny ... it brings the opportunity to think again in new and fresh ways about the manuscripts at the book’s centre and their place in the culture and practices of the early modern theatre.” —The Library
